Well, I am agree that stuff like %(name)s is unavoided. But to the other
side, I think we should to abstract as much as we can, so error can be
minor.

I can not find a convincing reason to leave "<strong>Hello</strong>".
- 'strong>' and '</strong' are not translatable and only may induce to
errors.
- Al last catalog can be fully of untranslatable text and can make
translation heavier than it really is. Writing 20 or 30 string with this
stuff can be normal but translating almost all the catalog is a daunting
task.
